What it does
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Current law provides that any sport shooting range that existed on June 18, 2010, may continue to operate as a sport shooting range at that location, notwithstanding the provisions of a zoning ordinance, if the sport shooting range was a lawful use or a legal nonconforming use under a zoning ordinance in effect on June 18, 2010. This bill changes the date on which a sport shooting range must have been in existence in order to continue operation, notwithstanding the provisions of a zoning ordinance, from June 18, 2010, to July 16, 2013.
